Abstract
Provided is a sensor network capable of acquiring, from a data center, learning data composed of a pair of sensor data (input) and a classification label (output) necessary for adding/changing a classification label for updating a classifier while reducing the volume of communication between a sensor and the center. One aspect of the present invention relates to a sensor network, including one or more sensor nodes and a data center. The sensor node includes: an encoding unit for encoding sensor data by an encoder part of an autoencoder; and a transmission unit for transmitting the encoded data. The data center includes: a reception unit for receiving data encoded from sensor data by the encoder part of the autoencoder; a decoding unit for decoding the encoded data by a decoder part of the autoencoder; and a storage unit for storing the decoded data therein.
